Answer:

Accommodation is the process of changing the shape of the lens to focus on near or distant objects.

To focus on a near object – the lens becomes thicker, this allows the light rays to refract (bend) more strongly.

To focus on a distant object – the lens is pulled thin, this allows the light rays to refract slightly.
